Interesting Facts about the Gastly

According to red/bue, Gastly is practically invisible. Many say it has no actual form at all, since it falls under the categories of poison and ghost. A true ghost or simply a factor of it being a gas Pokémon? That depends what you believe in. Ghastly is 95% poisonous gas, however it must be trained to use its poisonous attacks as it will not carry these out in the wild. The toxic purple haze that surrounds it can cause suffocation and fainting. Pretty scary stuff, however since Gastly is mostly gas, it can easily be swept away by strong winds.
